I didn’t change anything from the basic recipe. I just set aside two half-cupfuls of the mixture and added bottled flavorings to them. I added a few drops of melon flavor to one part and pandan flavor to the other. Since the melon flavor was already colored, there was no need to add food coloring. The pandan flavor, however, was transparent so I had to add a few drops of green food coloring.

hi!
can we use the pictures of yemas for ang pinaka QTV 11?
we are currently having our episode about foods…
Thanks!!!
dada tampis, if you will send me the specifics and we can agree on the parameters of the use of the photo, then I might be amenable to your request.
By the way, is this how modern corporations make official requests? By leaving comments in blogs?
Hi,
Can anyone give me the recipe for macapuno balll candy? I can’t seem to find it anywhere.
please can you give me the recipe of buko melon and buko padan yema balls. thanks.
cathy, click the link to page 2.
i once tasted a yema that is firm in the outside but soft in the inside abd it is delish:wink: so i tried making one myself but when i cook the condensed milk for 5 mins, then roll the balls in sugar, nawawala yung shape ng yema and hindi nagiging firm outside and soft inside,it just tasted sweet.heeellllppppp:cry:
tita connie, it’s me again. i was wondering, how come the yema balls looks a little different from your previous post using just the basic recipe. the yema seems more… for lack of a better word, firm. these look more like balls and look like they are holding their shape more. was there something different done during the cooking process? because i know the recipes used are the same except for the addition of the flavoring…
The temperature, mich. My daughter couldn’t wait to start rolling when we made the yema balls photographed in the earlier entry. The cooler the mixture, the easier to form into balls.
ohhhh okay, that makes sense… thank you! oh, i made your macaroons! i will put a comment on that too…
[...] Buko melon and buko pandan yema balls [...]
I made the yema balls and my whole family loved it. Although I made a lighter version and did not add the sugar in the end. I myself got sick of it because I kept tasting it upon rolling
Thank you so much for your recipe.
question though . How would you make ube yema balls if you had just the dry powder?
Thank you again
